Buy it
I first found this at the public library. After seeing it I ordered my own copy. It is a great source for a history of the science of astronomy and offers non-science people a good view at what is happening with the various theories in an understandable manner.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
